Using an Indium atomic beam as absorber the resonance fluorescence of the transitions 5d2D3/2 - 5p2P1/2 (λ = 3039 Å) and 6d2D3/2-5p2P 1/2 (λ=2560 Å) was measured as a function of an external magnetic field. In both states two signals were observed at magnetic fields, where three level crossings occur. The observed line shape is discussed for the case of overlapping level crossing components with regard to radiation width and hyperfine structure splitting. The experimental results can be described by the following values for the lifetime τ and the hyperfine structure constants A and B : 5d2D3/2: | A|=(64.5±1.0) Mc/sec·gJ/0.8; B/A = - 0.59±0.17; τ = ( 7.0± 0.4) · 10-9 sec · 0.8/gJ ;6d2D3/2: | A | =(72.1 ±0.3) Mc/sec·gJ/0.8 ; B/A = - 0.47 ±0.05; τ = (25.5±1 ) ·10-9 sec-0.8/gJ . The values and the sign of the hyperfine structure constants indicate interconfiguration mixing.

The sum rules for the energy levels of a hyperfine multiplet in a constant uniform magnetic field are presented. It is found that for any value of the electron angular moment and the nuclear spin there are certain linear combinations of energy levels that do not depend on the magnetic field and can be used to determine the unperturbed hyperfine-structure separation in the presence of a perturbing magnetic field. It is also demonstrated that there are other linear combinations that are linear with the external magnetic field and hence can be used to determine bound values of the electron and nuclear magnetic moments. The accuracy of the approximation within which the result is valid is also discussed.PACS Nos.: 32.10.Fn, 32.60.+i1
